This night was again rich in information concerning the extension of Final fantasy XIV : Heavensward
Zones
Ishgard will be cut into two parts to facilitate, as always, the fluidity of the premises and the loading. You should know that most of the constructions presented in Ishgard will be made from stones. In the lower part of the area, there will mainly be ruins destroyed during clashes with the dragons. For the small superior of the city, these are mainly religious buildings. Here are the images of the statues:
About the area Dravanian (English name), you should know that this area is located west of Ishgard and is divided into three parts:
- the part Highlands is the area where the dragons live, as well as a new tribe the Gunas.
- The area Lowlands will mostly be made of mountains. However it was not invaded by dragons, the weather is rather good because it is quite hot there. There are many archaeological ruins, a deserted Sharlayan city.
- The area Cloud Sea which is next to the game Highlands. For scenario reasons, we don't yet know why there are so many ruins in this area. We will find there the story of the seven Celestial Dragons.
The area Abarasia Cloud sea is located east of Ishgard. This area is extremely rugged. To truly experience the area fully, a flying mount will be needed. Yeh!
It is the home of the Vanu Vanu tribe.
For the floating continent, there was no information released as they are still working on it.
